Damn, thats one snazzy OP.
How did you get the seperate video links over the grey background?

 

[Zeliard]

...the fuck? You've never played the best game ever put you're hyped for its sequel?

Gamers these days don't get to experience much - or any - quality RPG/FPS hybrid gameplay. Deus Ex: HR shall be the mead to soothe their ills.

 

[BIONIC-ARRRMMM!!]

This should've been in the OP haha

 

[thelatestmodel]

The game is 11 years old and I didn't play it when it came out, I might dig up the PS2 version (sue me) since it's supposedly a pretty good port down the line but currently I have no interest.

It is a bit weird that you're interested in this but won't pick up the original to see what all the fuss is about. Just saying.

PC version is just a few bucks on Steam, it'll be the best few bucks you ever spend.

you should have posted that pic in response to Solo's reply.

Awesome OT! Can't wait for this game, PC preview thing blew me away!

What a thread. Great work, abunai!

Nice OP! I'm strangely excited about this game despite normally not being interested in FPS.

It's an FPS / RPG !

 

[Replicant]

I know, I know! I'm hoping I can get through the game with minimal FPS action though since I suck at FPS.

Shouldn't be an issue. You should be able to stealth your way through much of it.

Apparently the boss fights are lame since you can only fight them a certain way, and presumably that means shooting them lots, but the rest of the game should be much more open-ended.

Saw an advert on tv that made me very interested in this game. I noticed a lot of you were playing the leaked preview build. Is it legal to download it? I'm not asking for links.

If the battle is similar to Mass Effect one when you have to use sniper riffle then I should be okay. FPS when I'm stationary/behind a cover is usually not a problem. I only have difficulty when I have to move and shoot in FPS mode while the enemies are around me.

 

[Barack Lesnar]

I'm still a little worried about the potential sales. If shit like Brink can sell 600k+ first month, it shouldn't have a problem but I dunno. Okay sales like 400k combined first month aren't gonna do it; it needs like 600-800k due to the massive time (4 years) and dollar (tens of millions) investment involved here.

I think you'll be fine. That's not the Deus Ex way of doing things.

[The_Darkest_Red]

I'm looking forward to jumping on the Deus Ex bandwagon next week, I never got around to playing the original.

 

[JoeBoy101]

Good OP there. Only issue is that the title should have been:

Deus Ex: Human Revolution |OT| What a shame

What a shame.

 

[Fine Ham Abounds]

Count me in the "never played the first game but hyped for this one" camp.

You can commence pelting me with tomatoes now.

If this game does not sell at least a million plus it's first month I have lost all faith in the general public who call themselves *gamers*.

This is a game that screams to be played by everyone. Please, BUY THIS GAME. We need more titles like this.

[Tacitus_]

The game releases on 23th and I have a bunch of tests on the 24th. Fuckkkkkkkkk

 

[KorrZ]

Amazing OT! One week left...O M G. I played the preview build and have had to restrain myself from playing it again....my waiting will soon end...

 

[wutwutwut]

That is incorrect. You have to fight and kill bosses, but there are plenty of ways to do that that don't involve shooting the bosses lots.

 

[BadTaste]

Sweet OP.

 

[thelatestmodel]

It really bothers me when people pronounce it like this.

 

[Zenith]

This will either be the second greatest game ever made or the greatest depending if it can best the original or not.

 

[Ricker]

Got this pre-ordered for a while now,can`t wait to see the Montreal mission...I thought it was deleted from the game a while back ?....great OP as well.

 

[Tacitus_]

That is incorrect. You have to fight and kill bosses, but there are plenty of ways to do that that don't involve shooting the bosses lots.

Have you played a build newer than the leaked one? Because the boss in that required you to shoot at him a lot. Or are you just playing with semantics since there were some interactable objects you could throw at him?

Deus Ex 1. Never played. I own the disc version and Steam version. Where do I start, both in mods and a noob guide?

How long is the original? I should have my new pc built by this weekend and might give it a spin with those texture mods. Are the stories truly unrelated?

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

Great OT, a lot of work.

I am still on the edge with this game, reviews will push me to rent first/buy later or buy first.

No need for a noob guide, put the difficulty on normal or hard and just push through the Liberty Island mission, it's somewhat of a weak start.

Use the Steam version and download this mod

That is all.

Steam version. No mods, it's not worth the hassle and they do not improve the core game experience.

You don't really need a guide, just familiarize yourself with the basic controls, and remember that you right click to pick things up.

Be patient when aiming in the early stages of the game, the shooting mechanics are a little dated and can be a bit weird to someone picking it up now. Plan your attacks carefully and you'll be fine.

 

[TyrantGuardian]

I honestly prefer playing Deus Ex 1 on Realistic. That's what I did on my first playthrough. The game certainly gives you the necessary tools to beat the game regardless of how fast you die, it just means that you can't rush in guns blazing and hope to kill everyone without a plan. Saving often helps, though.

I feel stupid, I started Deus Ex 1 but found it difficult (partly due to being old, partly due to me not being a PC gamer), how is the difficulty through the rest of the game after Liberty Island?

 

[StoppedInTracks]

The Deus Ex we have been waiting for 10 years.

The OT we deserved.

 

[DryvBy]

Man, I can't wait for my birthday. This game is hot stuff! I'm double dipping. PC for mods and best gameplay, but PS3 so my wife can watch. Any PS3/360 comparison fighting yet?

Things get pretty tough when

, but yeah the difficulty does get reasonably harder after Liberty Island.
